I think this article is genious. Video games will raise test scores and they will entertain the kids as well as help them learn about real life.
The article is about how different game designers are creating games relevant to school and then having children play them. The MacArthur Foundation are trying to find out if these video games really promote learning. They feel that video games are inaccurate because they say that "the world is not a video game." Other designers say that playing video games raises the chance of aquiring ADD(attention deficit disorder). Different kids say that they play video games for fun instead of promoting learning. Video games say that failing is okay because it is fake, but in the real world failing is unacceptable.

I disagree because the games will most likely be corny and uninteresting to the students. Students who are uninterested in learning will most likely not be motivated by corny video games.
I think you have a good point cause from what video game experts say is that the games will be entertaining so these kids most likely would be motivated.
I agree with myself 100%. I am always right, I've always been right, and I will always be right.
Nothing can change that I'm just a genious
